today many people just think on the results obtained now without thinking the impact for future generations. for example there are still many farmers who use chemicals in farming, whereas chemicals can damage the soil and damage the existing ecosystem. to maintain sustainable living needs the application of organic farming

Sustainable is the opposite of our current money system. When a positive number in your pocket describes a negative asset, you are far away from sustainable living Cheesy

For sustainable living I would recommend to start building a farm and be autonomous in every aspect.

Hi guys!!

I would be interested in how you think about sustainable living? There are many discussions about how to make big money, invest good and so on, but is it a big point for you to live that the next 1, 2, 3, 100 generations can have a good and stable life too?
And how important is this point for politicans and others?

I am excited Smiley

Sustainable living means that you can live and earn and be alive and well for the days to come and I think one point that we should always stress about is our ability and innovations that can make living sustainable is how we treat the world and our future

Having an income everyday will support and sustain your everyday living. Having a business to earn more income and profit to sustain all the needs you want is one way to sustainable living. And you can transfer the business you started to the next generation of the family for future  so that they can sustain their life when they are in exact age for them to live alone. Politicians this days are corrupts , not all but most politicians steals money from people , that is their way to sustainable living.

I guess you are talking about living off your investment income? Starting early in life is key, with the help of compounding interest it can be easy to save for retirement if you are consistent. The best investment (risk vs reward) for most people would be investing in a stock market index fund, but it is best not to keep all your eggs in one basket. You have to get to millionaire status if you really want to live off the yearly interest alone
Sustainable living is using your resources properly.  It is investing your living in a nice and feasible business.  Sustainable living is a way of spending your money on things that you may get an earning.  A stable job that will keep your living steady.

Sustainable living is knowing where and how you use your resources,not by living luxuriously.Example is by conserving energy,water,taking good care of the surroundings.The next generation still have a sustainable living if we are practicing to plant more trees to ease the impact of climate change.

Your arguments are good, but it´s not the sustainable living i mean!!
I was thinking about take care of nature, saving resources, climate change and so on...
Not to live that you kids have a good life too, to life that the next generations in general have it

The key, I believe, is try to make as little change as possible to the planet, whatever that change should be. So a closed ecosystem is the best option and it fits with our aspirations to leave on other planets as well.

We could live underground and not cut down forests for no reason, let along farming and wood. We should try to develop underground farming to a higher level. Use heat from the core of the planet or from solar panels in the desert to generate electricity that we use for artificial light in our underground farms.
Unlike some people, I actually believe that less organic and natural way of life is the best option for the planet. We should use GMOs to make underground farming more efficient and live our life with our inventions and interfere with nature as little as possible and let it run it's natural course without us.

I too opened this thread thinking it was about sustainable living on the earth side of things. Some interesting points brought up here about underground farming. I haven’t heard much about it but like the idea. I also like the idea of focusing farming in areas that don’t destroy highly biodiverse ecosystems.

Also I get the GMO point about being more efficient than organic, but there are other issues about GMOs and the chemicals specifically

Quiet excited we are talking about sustainability here earlier i got confused because i couldn't because when we talk about sustainable living in my world it is about the food we eat and the impact on our body i know thats sustainability but i believe in the sustainability of the earth and the solar system in a whole where are benefits and utilization of resources today wouldnt hinder future generations from achieving the same benefits. it is a good thing we are need to look at. In Germany the greens are very prominent party and they influence decision making a lot and if other people can adopt measures that will promote growth with posterity in mind the world will be a better place for the future

I agree, but the problem with the prominent party called greens in some part of europe is, that their main focus drifted away from things like environmental Protection!! Now they are more into things like equal rights and so on. It´s good too, but not as half important than saving nature and things like that.

In addition to minimizing our carbon footprints, we can use crypto to invest in funds that are environmentally friendly. Swarm Fund is a new way for individuals to invest in solar energy projects, which is pretty cool.
Generally all investments In alternative energy will have a very huge demand and profit. The fact is that to date there are a lot of projects that can practically save the world from many problems. Of course, this is a huge income.

Sustain by definition is having something to last for a long time. If you want to sustain your living, you got to have a source of steady income. You can sustain life by having the basic necessities of life. You need a daily supply of food, water and clothing. If you can sustain this for one month, then you have to maintain that standing to sustain it. You can prolong this by hard working and not wasting money on irrelevant stuffs that you don't need.

If bitcoin is generating another source of income then you can sustain life.

100% sustainable living is impossible due to a little thing we call entropy. That being said, maximizing the sustainability of life on earth pretty much boils down to minimizing our carbon footprint. Protect ecosystems and mother nature, and try to recycle as much as possible.

In everyday lives, there are lots of things that need to sustain our life and our needs. We need money to sustain our daily needs. Without money, we can't live in this world. Through this money, it can helps us to buy different goods, vegetables, fish, meat, grain, clothes and also house in order for us to live in the world for a long perwof time.

I don't think human are made for a smooth life.
When there is freedom, there will be differences.
Someone would love to go to work, watch TV and play with their kids.
While someone would go look for trouble to entertain themselves.

Ok, that´s a good point too.
I think people often need a egopush and that´s the problem and the reason for nearly every war or confrontation in general!!
They have to compensate their low ego with money, power and so on and that´s also the reason why an sustainable living will get more difficult from generation to generation maybe

A big issue is the job loses that we all face replaced with lesser paying jobs. Every day I turn on the computer to see a new job field that could be wiped out with robots and technology. Take construction, most cranes will be automated in the future, replacing all crane operators.
Have yet to see a solution for how we are going to address these issues of no pensions and low paying jobs well facing higher tuitions and skyrocketing housing prices.
Right now the rich are going all out and turning their back to turn a profit anyway possible and its going to be at least a generation of struggle before we see positive change that will pull the average person up.
Read recently that these changes are already hitting places like India with a lot of merchandize companies moving back to their original Countries due to cheaper robots and transport costs negating the cheaper wages. A bot can work faster and cheaper long term, so the 3rd World Countries are really going to suffer and take the first wave of change.

In order for you to have a sustainable living, you need to lessen your wants, lessen the expenses to the unimportant things. Give more focus on the daily needs, to the things that help you to survive the every day life. Stop asking for the things you don't really need.

Good ideas, but to be honest, who of us act like this?
In my opinion it´s a dream we can´t a achieve!!
